  • The Playoff$0

    Scott Lowery

    The Playoff$ Regardless of your rooting interest, every sports fan would agree that 2020 has been a very strange year.

    Scott Lowery

    With fall officially arriving this week, we are now into our third season of ‘COVID-company.’ It hasn’t been fun, but most of us are coping the best we can. September is the year’s most significant transitional month with warm summer days turning to cool autumn mornings with the harbinger of an arriving winter all to

  • Fall Bucket List…Take 120

    Steph Nordstrom

    This is probably the eleventy-billionth time I have made a Fall Bucket List. Every year I get this laundry list of ideas in my head that I want to do before the leaves and snow hit the ground. Usually, I manage like two of them. But once again, I’m going to put my list out

    Scott Lowery

    On the day our treasured Bowman Field was to be filled with happy Little Leaguers and excited fans about to witness the fourth annual MLB/Little League Classic game between the Boston Red Sox and the Baltimore Orioles, the revered city landmark on West Fourth Street stood silent. The same condition existed at LLB’s Lamade and

    Normally, this is the time of year I welcome the world to Williamsport for the playing and festivities of the Little League World Series. Hopefully, next year my column is just that. Can you imagine a year ago if one of those seers of the future would have told you where our Nation would be

  • Sports’ Shaky Return0

    Scott Lowery

    Decision time is fast approaching (if it hasn’t already hit prior to this Webb Weekly publication date). Major League Baseball is scheduled to ‘open’ their 2020 season this week, the NBA hopes to conclude their 2019-20 season under a bubble in Florida, the NFL is nervously approaching the opening of its training camps and the

    ? With Lycoming County going green, many area Little Leagues are now scrambling. I mentioned to you a few weeks back that everything was at a complete standstill. Little League International had just pulled the plug on the 2020 World Series, and the future was unknown. Unprecedented territory for Williamsport’s favorite pastime. There have been

    Lou Hunsinger, Jr.

    The Jersey Shore Future Business Leaders Association chapter at Jersey Shore High School has had a memorable year, not just because of the COVID-19 pandemic but something more positive and outstanding. They have built a record of excellence for themselves not only locally but at the national and statewide levels as well. Dolly Oden, a

    Scott Lowery

    As colleges and universities across the country scramble with their game plans as to how they will go-about educating their students and re-establishing some sort of normalcy on their campuses this fall, Lycoming College has announced their intentions to conduct a ‘full residential campus opening’ when classes resume. Inquiring as to how that plan will

    My apologies for missing last week’s edition. Thanks to everyone who reminded me. I am finally back to work after a six-week hiatus. We are totally slammed, and I guess it’s a good problem to have. Personally. I liked it better when I was a stay at home dad. My wallet was flush and had

    When I first took on this column, I mentioned that my tastes in writing spanned the full spectrum of topics. This particular topic is about taking a funny looking piece of metal and using it to create a brutally effective home workout. Certainly, appropriate in these times, as going to any public place has become

    Commander John S. Leinbach has issued the following general order to Reno Post No. 64, G.A.R.

    By Don Daughenbaugh Recently, while my fishing friend Paul Blechner and I were checking the Big Pine Creek water basin for rising trout, we noticed a Pennsylvania black bear trying to get into a roadside garbage dumpster below Blackwell. That’s not unusual in Pennsylvania because, in reality, we have a lot of black bears in

    Scott Lowery

    Good riddance may be the kindest thing I could say about the month of March as we push its disastrous thirty-one days into our rear-view mirror. What we are collectively enduring has been nothing to fool around about. It seems somewhat ironic that in the face of all this grimness the beginning of April brings

    Larry Stout

    There are many subplots to this Coronavirus Crisis. One is the continual emergence of the Law of Unintended Consequences. An example of this was Governor Wolf’s mandate that PennDOT temporarily close its 30 rest areas statewide on March 17 due to coronavirus mitigation efforts. However, this was quickly lifted because those Harrisburg bureaucrats who determined

    These are scary times. Unprecedented kids. The good folks at the Webb Weekly ask me to chime in each week. I usually write an article on something that deals with sports. But man, there really isn’t much to talk about.  We have been without any professional play. MLB, MLS, the NHL, the NBA and the

    ? “Where were you when the world stopped turning” inquired country singer Alan Jackson in his 2002 hit song recorded as a tribute to the victims of 9/11 and a reminder to the American public to stay strong and persevere. Most of us can recall where we were and what we were doing when those

    We are in truly remarkable times. Consider the past one hundred years, and what events stopped this country in its tracks. There was Pearl Harbor (1941), Kennedy’s assassination (1963), the 911 attacks (2001), and now the COVID (Crisis/Scare?) of 2020. Yes, there have certainly been headline-grabbing events over past decades such as Watergate in the

    The St. John Neumann Regional Academy’s 2019-20 season suddenly came to a close. We were nipped 59-57 by Southern Foulton at the horn. It was a tremendous game, but unfortunately all good things come an end. 22-5. Mid Penn and District 4 Champs. PIAA Sweet 16. Impressive, but it still hurts. Everyone took it very

    For a young group of middle school athletes, the opportunity to see a Division One team play is exciting in its own right. Add to that, sitting courtside and looking across the gym to see one of the most prolific scorers and, arguably one of the best ever from Pennsylvania and Penn State University women’s

    I genuinely believe there are two sides to every story. Rumors and speculations are everywhere, and I usually refrain from commenting online. There are several buzzes within our local community.

    HAPPY NEW YEAR! Like when you do something for the first time, it seemed a bit strange to write the date 2020 as I prepared for this first column of the new year. Most likely many of us will have a few ‘date stumbles’ when we write our first check or fill out information at

    Press Release

    Pennsylvania’s state bird, the ruffed grouse, has suffered dramatic population losses due to the statewide scarcity of young forests and large-scale West Nile virus die-offs. To offset those losses, the Pennsylvania Game Commission has created a tool to identify prime grouse recovery areas. “The Game Commission recognizes that all conservation partners must work smarter, not

    I had every intention of running in the general election, but my family accused me of not taking my medications. I also couldn’t afford the costs that were associated with a campaign.

    Nestled along a wooded country road a long fly cast from the Loyalsock Creek, the home is a reflection of the man who lives there.

    In May of 1919, a group of men who had served in the American Expeditionary Forces in the Great War had returned from France and met in St. Louis to create an advocacy organization for returning vets such as themselves. They called it the American Legion. There were some heavy hitters among those organizers, such
